The Fifth Wheel

***Demetri's POV***

I got ready for our night out. I can't say I wasn't a little excited. I hadn't been out for a fun night in quite some time. Although, I could'nt help but feel like a fifth wheel tagging along with my Beta and Gamma couples.

Oh well, I would enjoy this night. A few drinks, dancing and good company promised a night of enjoyment. These were my best friends after all. If nothing else, it's always fun to listen to music, dance (I'm good on my feet) and watch the drunkards shamelessly throw themselves around.

I turned the massaging shower head on and turned the water on full heat. As I got in, I basked in the furious beating of scorching hot beads that danced across my skin. I washed my body with my Axe shower gel and scrubbed my face with my girly moisturizing scrub. What? I like a soft face!

I turned the water off and wrapped a large white towel around my waist before exiting the bathroom. Having already brushed my teeth, I entered my closet to prepare for our evening. Alex and Efran followed suit, all getting ready in my Alpha suite like the best buds we were. Alisa and Lindsay were in the Beta suite doing the same.

I slipped on my black jockeys and rummaged thru my impeccably organized clothes. I located the black denim boot cut jeans I was searching for, slipping them on and reached for my combat boots. I grabbed my black, snug fit v-neck from its hanger and exited the large walk in closet.

Heading over towards my vanity, I grabbed my deodorant and applied it along with a light mist of my Abercrombie and Fitch "Fierce" cologne. The women swooned over this scent. It complimented my natural scent well. I wasn't looking to hook up but, I took pride in my appearance. You never know when you might run into someone of consequence.

Looking in the mirror, I adjusted my septum piercing, bringing it down on full display. Each of us Elite Three have them. We simply tuck them away around our parents during formal events, out of respect. They know we have them, along with tattoos and ear piercings. We just don't flaunt it unnecessarily. The tattoos are more symbolic and we encourage individuality in our pack. Even my parents carry a few tattoos of their own. I get it honestly.

I ran some gel thru my hair with my fingertips, messily placing the longer strands to accentuate my features. I knew at some point my hands would find their way to my locks, as this is a common nervous tick of mine and Alex. The gel would keep it tame enough from my assaults. I took a last look in the mirror, pleased that I was looking my best!

"Seriously, Alpha, get out of the fucking mirror! You aren't the only one who needs to impress." Alex yelled.

I threw him a wink and stayed firmly rooted in front of the vanity just to rake his nerves.

Efran shoved me playfully, as I side stepped clumsily. Efran, earning a punch to his bicep that made him wince. The big baby was rubbing his arm and pouting profusely.

"Shut up and make yourself presentable, you pansy." I retorted.

Efran winked at himself in the mirror and I rolled my eyes.

"I feel bad for Lindsay" I mocked.

"Me too" Alex said.

"Why?" Efran smirked.

Me and Alex looked at him with false alarm.

"She is in competition with your ego." I groaned out.

Efran laughed and gave himself a lusty glare in the mirror.

"I'm sure she understands" he replied.

Oh Goddess this poor girl I thought as I smirked to myself.

Alex finished up. To be honest, we once again looked like triplets. All our outfits mirrored one another. Our tats on full display, piercings in place and hair equally styled. I had to admit, we looked great and always intimidated. I liked that tho. No one fucked with us, ever!

A light tap on the door turned our attention.

Alisa asked "Are you guys descent?"

"Not if you don't want us to be" I stated.

A punch to each of my biceps and two low growls, made me chuckle.

Alisa and Lindsay entered the room. Immediately they greeted their mates with kisses on the cheek. I rolled my eyes and groaned. This is gonna be a long night with these two couples.

I complimented the ladies. They looked stunning. Alex was drooling and Efran was eye raping Lindsay. I was fake shuttering and gagging.

They all laughed. We walked out of my suite and headed down stairs.

As we were leaving, Alpha Carter, Luna Elise, Beta Micheal and his Beta Female Beth wished us a good night. The girls hugged their moms and kissed their dads. The three of us guys gave firm handshakes. I thanked them for holding the pack down while we enjoyed a night off.

Then we headed to my black Escalade, that one of my guards would be chauffeuring us in. Safety first, we knew we would be drinking. I took the passenger seat. Alex and Alisa got the second seat while Efran and Lindsay took the back. I settled in for the quiet hour long ride to the club.

At least I thought it would be quiet. I wasn't used to the girls yet, and by the end of the drive I was starting to understand their Father's comments about them being a lot to handle.

They squealed and chatted the entire ride. Often, they would shoot questions my way. I didn't mind their interrogations but, I felt more like that fifth wheel when they would bring up my mate.

I know she's out there. I wasn't worried. But, a beautiful lady on my arm tonite would have made this evening much better.

I decided not to go there. Enjoying this evening the girls had planned was my goal. I would not let a little self-pity stop me from this fun.

We pulled up to the club, got out at the curb and I caught sight of the long line of people wrapped around the building. The night was warm and I wouldn't mind having to wait in line. I started  off to my right to enter the que when Lindsay grabbed my hand.

Efran growled and Lindsay giggled.

"He's going the wrong way babe" she stated while placing her tiny hand on his bicep.

He immediately calmed down and apologized. I smirked and let it go. He's just possessive. I understand!

"Which way was I supposed to go Linds" I asked. She smiled at the nickname. Efran rolled his eyes playfully.

"We are part of the band, Alpha. We have VIP." She stated with a nod of her head.

Well, I wasn't complaining. The party was gonna start quicker thanks to our insiders.

"Lead the way for your groupies" I laughed out.

The girls giggled and headed to the bouncers. They whispered their status and apparently the over grown guards knew. They unlocked the chained ropes and let us by, the crowd behind staring in annoyance.

The club was awesome. No lie! It was very upscale but carried the whole laid back vibe. Smoke billowed from the ceiling and wrapped itself around the feet of the attendees. Ventilation worked well, since you could breathe thru the smell of cigarettes.

Werewolves don't smoke, we can with no repercussions but, most of us just don't. It's a nasty habit. The humans tho, they didn't seem to mind. The only humans here were well aware of us wolves. They were part of our supernatural world in one form or another. The club had several bars and they were packed. Fortunately, being VIP gave us a very attentive waitress. We got our drinks quickly once we entered the area.

The music was loud and base booming. No particular genre was prominent. Dancing was apparently the main goal and I was more than happy to oblige. There were some sitting areas and pool tables scattered thru out. They also served food, mostly appetizers. I was excited for food. FOOD is bae.

Soon after receiving our drinks the girls excused themselves. Apparently, they would be playing the stage for a short time this night. I was excited to see them in their element. I enjoyed my new members. They looked stoked and I was hoping Efran and Alex would be supportive. Although, I couldn't see why they wouldn't be.

Alisa explained there would be another girl on stage. The lead singer. I was interested to see what she would be like. The girls were raving about her. Although, they didn't give too many details. But, I figured they had their mind on their set.

The lights dimmed down and the club got quiet. You could here low chatter as people exchanged locations on the dance floor. The noise from the stage being reset was low in the background. I decided to chat with the guys while we waited. But they were already moving towards the dance floor.

"Hey guys, wait up" I said as I quickly caught up.

"Did Alisa and Lindsay give any clues as to what they were playing tonight." I asked.

Both Alex and Efran answered coolly "Nah!"

"Well, I guess we will see" I said.

They smiled and turned towards the stage. I followed their actions. We were about eight feet from the stage, a third of the way in the dance floor.

The lights shifted and the people started going nuts. The girls must have been quite popular as the crowd was already excited. The stage lit up and I saw Alisa to the right and Lindsay to the left. Instruments were in their hands. A bar stool sat to the side of the main mic stand which stood lonesome at the center of the stage.
